before.
Raven took a step back, her gaze drifting between Marley's thighs before she nodded, then glanced back up to Marley. “Yes, that's good.” She grabbed Marley's shoulders and pulled to arch her back. “Bring your arms behind you, hold on to your hands, and push out your chest."
Marley complied.
"Now lift your head. You've got a beautiful long neck—show it off to him."
Again Marley listened. Not a comfortable position, yet she assumed Raven knew what Reed wanted. Besides, a sense of calm washed over her while she knelt and waited. All her nerves, the butterflies whipping about, settled.
Raven fiddled with her hair, getting the waves perfectly displayed, before she gave Marley a final look. “Yes, that'll do.” She walked to the door, opened it, then glanced over her shoulder. “Oh and, Marley, don't look at him until he directs you otherwise, and always end your responses with ‘Sir.’ This is his space now, and I suggest you don't forget that fact."
Easier said than done!
The restaurant had been busy when Reed entered and only seemed to fill up more as time went by. He drank the glass of water to replenish his fluids before he met with Marley. From the moment he sat on the stool, he felt impatient, and as the minutes drew on, it only intensified and he found himself fidgeting.
"Marley is ready for you, Master Reed."
Reed spun around to see Raven grinning from ear to ear. “What's with the look?"
"If I didn't know you better, I'd say you appear anxious."
Reed snorted. “But you do know me well.” Raven had always been the woman to prepare Reed's subs, and over the years, they'd formed a solid friendship.
Her eyes sparkled as she laughed. “Right. Well, you better get going unless you're making her wait on purpose."
Reed drank the rest of his water and then approached Raven. He rested his hand on her shoulder. “Like I said, you do know me well.” He wanted to test Marley. Would she hold her position?
He couldn't deny it excited him to see if this would be a natural role for her to fall into, or if it would take some teaching on his part. Either way he would enjoy discovering his answer.
"Enjoy yourself tonight,” Raven said.
"I imagine I will.” He patted her shoulder. “Thank you for preparing her."
Raven winked. “It's my pleasure."
Reed left Raven behind and made his way toward the dungeon. He ventured up the stairs and noticed the tray of toys he'd requested waiting for him at the door. After a quick look to ensure the items were all there, he took the folded black sheet off the side and covered the tray. He grabbed the door handle and entered the room.
The image Marley presented sent blood rushing straight to his cock. She also hadn't looked to him in curiosity, just as he'd instructed Raven to tell her.
Impressive.
Reed strode farther into the room, pushed the cart, and placed it against the wall. He approached her then and stopped in front of her. She never looked up, never wavered in her position, even though he could see her tremble. “You may stand."
Marley stood in an awkward way, which didn't surprise him since she was new to BDSM. He knew he couldn't fault her, as a smooth transition needed to be learned. Besides, he had been too busy staring at her to really care. The corset had been a perfect choice, and Reed held back his groan. The woman could leave him flustered if he hadn't possessed the control he did.
"You may look at me, and if I ask you a question, you are to answer."
She looked to him, and the burn in her gaze indicated that nerves played no part there. Clearly the trembling of her body had been due to her arousal. He suspected her pussy would be slick with need, which only made his cock harder.
Reed glanced along the length of her body, admiring her. The corset stopped just at her hips, where the garter belt sat lower and stretched over her tight ass, leaving her creamy skin exposed in the places he planned to pay attention to later. He circled behind
